I am a Cloud Architect specializing in scalable, secure multi-cloud infrastructure.
What I'm looking for
I am a Cloud Architect with 11 years of experience designing and implementing scalable, high-availability cloud-native architectures across AWS and GCP. I specialize in infrastructure automation using Terraform and CloudFormation, and in container orchestration with Kubernetes and Docker, having architected and managed production workloads on AWS and GKE. I have a proven track record of optimizing performance, strengthening security, reducing costs, and delivering zero/minimal downtime migrations.
In my current role I built MCP servers and infrastructure for AI-powered chat assistants, led Redpanda/Kafka migrations with no data loss, and implemented PgBouncer and database splits to improve stability. I seek opportunities to lead cloud platform engineering, improve resilience through automated scaling and DR strategy, and mentor teams on secure, cost-efficient cloud practices.
